Your BODY

When you think about your body what's the first thing that comes to your mind?...Is it different than what you thought 1 yr ago or even 5 yrs ago or 10 yrs ago? My view of my body now is totally different than it was yrs ago! Honestly, my view was severely distorted! It actually, consumed me! I spent so much time thinking I could never be skinny enough or pretty enough! I saw everything on myself as an imperfection! Something so small that no one would noticed seemed sooo gigantic to me. So, what changed you ask??? I got the message! No, it wasn't an audible voice from GOD! But, what is was, was so perfect and clear God was speaking to me!.....My daughter was in preschool several years ago and during one of their craft times she made a magnet. It wasn't just any magnet. It had a message. It simply said "I am wonderfully made!" From Psalm 139. When she brought that home and I saw it, I immediately felt like it was made just for me! It was like the truth was finally penetrating me to the core! I had a revelation that every time I was looking at myself in a bad way or complaining about myself I was insulting the creator! WOW! I never saw it that way before. It was at that moment for the first time in my life I was in awe about me. The God of the universe who created EVERYTHING made ME exactly how he wanted me! How dare me criticize the creation. He made you to just as you are. Just as He wanted! YOU are WONDERFULLY made!
